This is eerily reminiscent of my troubles with the same version of Pine,
building on a Red Hat Linux 5.1 (Intel) box.

I tried a few other variations on this and always got "can't open
/home/kmactane/Maildir: not a selectable folder".
I checked in with James Smallacombe about it, too, but he didn't have any
ideas aside from making sure the .qmail file has a trailing slash (which it
does).
In case it will help, here are a few more details on my system (don't
laugh; it serves stuff):
Intel Pentium 75 MHz
32 MB RAM
1 IDE HD
running RHL 5.1 (2.0.34 kernel)
shadow passwords
qmail 1.03
daemontools 0.53
Let me know if any other details would help.
